so that added to the national deficit. and one other thing that we should talk about in terms of the national deficit, part of it is that we're not bringing in as much revenue as we should be bringing in to pay for all the things, the services and programs that the american people continue to desire. there's no question under this president that we've seen, you know, the most significant budget cuts also in the history of country. discretionary spending is at its lowest in 60 years. taxes are also at their lowest. but the one thing that the democrats have not done, we haven't walked away from the table. we haven't pointed fingers and said it's their fault. we're all in this together. it's time republicans roll up their sleeves and come to the table so we can fix this problem and solve our many other great challenges before the end of the year and the american people can get back to work. that's what they desire us to do. >> i think both of these presidential candidates are gearing up for their one presidential debate in oc

deficit. people are working harder for less money than they were making 10 years ago, 2/3 of our people -- a $1,600 drop in average income in just the last two years. the problem i have with the perot prescription is that almost all economists who've looked at it say that if you cut the deficit this much this quick it will increase unemployment, it will slow down the economy. that's why i think we shouldn't do it that quickly. we have a disciplined reduction in the deficit of 50 % over the next four years, but first get incentives to invest in this economy, put the american people back to work. we've got to invest and grow. 9 nobel prize-winning economists and 500 others, including numerous republican and democratic business executives, have endorsed this approach because it offers the best hope to put america back to work and get our incomes rising instead of falling. >> president bush, one minute, sir. >> your question was on fairness. i just disagree with mr. perot. i don't believe it is fa
